-Operate upon the mind.* of the people and
•tir up their hostility against Keokuk, am! in
many cases to propose humbug projects of
Kailroade to Burlington.
Thus, when an attempt was made, some
two years ago, to unite the Northern and
Southern portion* of Lee county upon a
^Vestern Railroad with one branch to Fort
JWadison, an another to Keokuk, Burlington
exercised a potential influence to defeat it.—
And when we first attempted to excite an in
terest and raise subscription* in Van Buren
and other localities, for the Keokuk and Ft.
Dss Moines Road, Burlington orators ranged
through tha country, and humbugged Birm
ingham, Keosauqua, Iowaville, Salem and
forty other places, with the notion that Bur
lin ton was about to build a Railroad right
through every one of those towns.
While the strifo continued between Fort
idison und Keokuk, Burlington wa* unre-
MI..ugh
«ind it(» superiority over all others.
Now, however, Burlington has another oc
casion for attempting a diversion against
Keokuk, and in OTder to slacken the efforts of
the people iu the Northern part of our coun
ty in favor of the Kookuk and Muscatine
Koad, she proposes in her usual style of
humbug and bravado, to build a Road from
liurlington to \S est Point, aud thereby steal
the Fort Madison Road.
